Toby Gerhart, RB, Vikings. Hopefully Adrian Peterson owners heeded my advice last week and grabbed their top running back’s handcuff. If you did, then the possibility of losing Peterson is somewhat mitigated by Gerhart’s 15 carries for 89 yards and a score on Sunday. The downside is that Gerhart hurt his hamstring, meaning he’ll be a question this week. That would leave Matt Asiata as the next man up. Peterson owners have to grab Gerhart, injury question and all, but Asiata is a long-shot to become fantasy-relevant.

Joique Bell, RB, Lions. For the second week in a row, Bell scored more than 15 fantasy points. Incredibly, he is still available in nearly one-third of fantasy leagues. At this point, no Reggie Bush owner should be without him, especially with the Lions set to play on Monday night in Week 15. That late start does limit his value for everyone else, however.

Rod Streater, WR, Raiders. Streater had his biggest game of the season on Sunday, but he actually had been delivering solid WR3 production for the last month. His lowest output was 57 yards against Dallas, with 84- and 93-yard games preceding that one. In fact, Streater has just two games this season below 40 yards receiving and just one since Week 9. The Chiefs present a tougher matchup so he’s not a great play for this week, but a showdown with the Chargers in Week 16 should get Streater on your WR3 radar for the fantasy championship.

Daniel Thomas, RB, Dolphins.Lamar Miller is dealing with a concussion. While Miami is optimistic he’ll play, as we saw with Rashad Jennings missing last week, that's no guarantee. Miller owners should grab Thomas as insurance, especially if they are lacking other options. Everyone else probably can avoid him. Even if Miller sits, Thomas wouldn’t be a great fantasy option. It should take more than one good game to get into fantasy playoff lineups.

Dennis Pitta, TE, Ravens. Pitta made his season debut in Week 14, and did well, catching six passes for 48 yards and a score. The Ravens are lacking in reliable receiving weapons, so Pitta should see more targets than your average tight end. That alone can get him into some lineups. If you are hurting at tight end, Pitta is a worthwhile addition. Just don’t expect elite numbers from him.

James Starks, RB, Packers.Eddie Lacy suffered an ankle injury and his status for Week 15 is up in the air. His owners should invest in Starks. You could do worse than starting Starks against a terrible Cowboys defense that might be missing Sean Lee.

Jay Cutler, QB, Bears. Despite McCown’s strong performance, Bears coach Marc Trestman insists he will turn back to Cutler when the latter is healthy. Cutler is owned in roughly a third of Yahoo! leagues, so he's still widely available. Fantasy owners should grab both Cutler and McCown, if possible, and start whoever plays in the next two weeks. Don’t pass on freely available QB1 potential.
